Recently I brewed an extract recipe kit I ordered that was supposed to finish at 10% abv. I assume it did. After I bottled it with priming sugar and waited the weeks needed to carbonate, the should have carbonated beer was flat! I thought I wasted 5 gallons of beer. I sought out to rescue my beer so I experimented with adding dry yeast into a few of the bottles. I then waited a few days and bam! I had carbonated beer. Maybe a little too carbonated as there was a huge head on top.
Hope this helps someone else.
p.s. this might come in useful in making carbonated mead when I failed in the past.
